Kick Ass
Worth seeing - Halycon
Kick Ass is enjoyable. Some funny bits, some nice but not too over the top action scenes. Just about the right length as well. The younger cast were good, but Nicolas Cage was annoying, as was the main villain. The tone is nice and tongue in cheek, without being too sardonic.
